Filter by:The goal of this longitudinal study is to understand the postoperative quality of life and dynamic trajectory of shoulder function in individuals with rotator cuff tears.
The purpose of this study is to examine the psychometric properties of a Turkish shortened version of the Western Ontario Rotator Cuff Index (SHORTWORC).
Determining the factors affecting hand function after upper limb injuries is very important for maintaining independence in daily living activities. The aim of this study is to determine the relationship between core stability and hand function in patients undergoing rotator cuff surgery and to compare the results with healthy patients of a similar age. The aim of this study is to determine the relationship between core stability and hand function in patients undergoing artroscopic cuff surgery.
This is a randomized controlled trial in which patients with moderate to severe shoulder pain (Visual Analog Scale (VAS) > 40), in the setting of rotator cuff tendinopathy refractory to conservative treatment, will be enrolled. The primary aim of the study is to estimate the effect of transcatheter arterial embolization (TAE) with physical therapy (PT) vs PT alone on the change in shoulder pain at 12-month follow up. Scientific objectives also include an assessment of safety of the intervention, assessment of changes in Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) Upper Extremity score, Shoulder Pain and Disability Index (SPADI) scores, MRI Tendinopathy Score between the TAE + PT and PT groups.
The aim of this study was to compare the effects of iontophoresis and phonophoresis applications added to conventional treatment on pain, range of motion, disability, and functional status in the shoulder region in patients with subacromial impingement syndrome.
This study involves patients who will be undergoing a reverse total shoulder replacement at Duke University. 100 eligible will be randomly assigned into one of two groups, a sling or no sling group. Patients in the sling group will wear a sling for three weeks after their surgery while the no sling group will only wear a sling three days after their surgery. Patients will follow their doctors normal follow up visit schedule after surgery, with visits at 2 weeks, 6 weeks, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, and 2 years.
Instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization (IASTM) is a popular treatment method that can be used for myofascial restriction and fascial release. IASTM is used to reduce pain in the area where the pathology is located, increase range of motion (ROM), improve movement function and provide a mobilizing effect. When the literature was examined, no study was found examining the effectiveness of the IASTM technique, which is known to require less effort and stimulate healing compared to manual interventions, in the rehabilitation period after rotator cuff arthroscopic surgery. Therefore, our study aimed to examine the effects of instrument-assisted fascial mobilization given in addition to conventional rehabilitation on long-term pain, function, joint range of motion, fear of movement, and daily living activities in patients who have passed 4 weeks after rotator cuff arthroscopic surgery and are candidates for rehabilitation.
The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of Graded Motor Imagery (GMI) training on pain, functionality, disability and daily living activities in patients diagnosed with Shoulder Impingement Syndrome.
A randomized control trial will be done on diagnosed Shoulder impingemnet patients with physical therapy screening in Fauji Foundation Hospital Rawalpindi. There is a growing demand on finding treatments which can be more beneficial and can be started early on in the treatment phase, nowadays. The purpose of the study is to determine the "effects of progressive resistance training combined with traditional physical therapy in patients with shoulder impingement syndrome" using the resistance band and multipulley system. The traditional physical therapy will include hot pack placed on shoulder and neck region for ten minutes, Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimular will be used and the electrodes will be placed on the desired area (shoulder complex) the intensity will be increased manually according to the capacity of the patient and the treatment time will be of 15 minutes, stretching exercises such as doorway stretch and foam roll supine stretch will be done in the hospital for first 3 weeks and the next 3 weeks will be for home exercises moving from 5 repetitions to 20 repetitions for a set of 3. stretch will be hold for 30 seconds
This single-center, prospective, randomized controlled study will compare patients allocated to two treatment arms who are undergoing surgery to repair rotator cuff tears: (1) arthroscopic rotator cuff reconstruction using fixation with anchors augmented with a synthetic polyester patch, and (2) arthroscopic rotator cuff reconstruction using fixation with anchors and no augmentation with a synthetic polyester patch. The primary objective is to compare complications (primarily retear rates) and the secondary objective is to compare mid- and long-term clinical and radiological outcomes using standard orthopedic assessments, such as the subjective shoulder value and the Constant-Murley score.
